George Floyd’s murder not only impacted the ad industry – but the entire world. However, the funeral has passed, the trial is over, and the sentencing is complete. With the news cycle being on to the next topic, do we stop talking about racism?

212NYC certainly doesn’t think so, and we want to revisit our earlier conversation from a year ago -- again. We’re bringing back the topic of race relations in ad land with some of the great talent we heard from last time, and are bringing in new voices as well.

Join us as we celebrate Global Diversity Awareness Month for what’s to be a thoughtful conversation to broach the subject of accountability, what has changed, and what still needs to.
